well i don´t have as many friends because
i´m not as pretty as i was
i´ve kicked myself at times because i´ve lied
so i will have to learn to stand my ground
i´ll tell ´em i won´t be around
i´ll move on over to your town and hide

and you be the captain
and i´ll be no-one
and you can carry me away if you want to
and you can lay low
just like your father and if
i tread upon your feet you just say so
´cos you´re the captain, i am no-one,
i tend to feel as though i owe one to you

well i have handed all my efforts in
i searched here for my second wind
is there somewhere here to let me in i asked
so i slammed the doors they slammed at me
i found the place i´m meant to be
i figured out my destiny at last

you be the captain
and i´ll be no-one
and you can carry me away if you want to
and you can lay low
just like your father and if
i tread upon your feet you just say so
´cos you´re the captain, i am no-one,
i tend to feel as though i owe one to you

did i forget to thank you for the ride
i hadn´t tried i tend to runaway and hide

you be the captain
and i´ll be no-one
and you can carry me away if you want to
and you can lay low
just like your father and if
i tread upon your feet you just say so
´cos you´re the captain, i am no-one,
i tend to feel as though i owe one to you

you´re the captain and i am no-one
and i owe one to you
